Review: The House of Arden (Fabian Time Fantasies #1)

User Review - Anne J - Goodreads

E. Nesbit is always charming, but this book is an absolute gem. A beautiful and entertaining story complete with time-travel adventures, talking animals and exotic peoples. Most of all, though, this story teaches that family is the greatest treasure.Read full review

User Review - Beth - Goodreads

I enjoyed the stories with the time travel but the authors prose is a bit dated. But the book is over one hundred years old and still a good read.Read full review
